Are we speaking of the file /usr/share/backuppc/cgi-bin/BackupPC_Admin,
referred to in /etc/httpd/conf.d/backuppc.conf?
Sorry. Try these:
/usr/share/backuppc/lib/BackupPC/CGI/
/usr/share/backuppc/lib/BackupPC/Lang/
Hmm... I don't have those folders. Running a locate on en.pm and going for

Found it in /usr/lib/BackupPC/Lang/en.pm. This was a standard install, so I
guess
this path is the default for installing BPC.
Was looking into changing the log message 2011-02-09 22:01:48 Backup failed on
mach059.x.y.z (Child exited prematurely) so I looked for the text failed
using
# find -iname *.pm | xargs grep -iR failed failed.log.txt
in the /usr/lib/BackupPC. Nothing was found so I went to / and did the same
search. I had some better success here, but nothing that stands out as a likely
suspect. The closest I get is
./usr/lib/BackupPC/Lang/en.pm:$Lang{Reason_backup_failed} = backup
failed;
I'm not quite sure how to add the red html tags, referenced earlier to this.
Can somebody with a better knowledge than me in this help some more?
Thanks.

See if this works. In /usr/lib/BackupPC/Lang/en.pm:
$Lang{Reason_backup_failed} = backup font color=redfailed/font;
Do the same for any other backup errors in the lang file. This is a hack
(this doesn't belong in the Lang data), but it's a fast way to do what
you want.

I think you just need to escape the quotes. Try this:
